Update

Strength Calculator

Alas, after just getting the nits fixed I have gone and put a half-completed update to the calculator onto the site. Unfortunately I don't have an older version of the calculator to put back up again... it should still work fine for values you type in but the new feature, which allows you to pick a ship and have all its numbers appear automatically, is only working for a few ships as of now. So just ignore that bit and be patient, it should be fixed in a week or so.

Update

Species

Several additions from "Desert Crossing" and "Two Days And Two Nights" have gone onto the Alpha Quadrant other species list.

Ships

Two ships from "Desert Crossing" have gone up on the additional ships list. Also, I finally got around to fixing the Type 0 shuttle page to reflect the plasma cannon these ships carry; the comments page now also mentions the apparent mistake in "Detained" in which a shuttle fires what looks like a phase cannon, and offers a few possible solutions. I've also updated the NX class entry to fix the armament on the specs page and add a few lines to the comments page also.

Episode Guide

"Desert Crossing" and "Two Days And Two Nights" have been added.

Update

Strengths

The Strength calculator which went up on the 9th turned out to have a few bugs in it, so a fix has gone up today which should hopefully correct all problems. in addition the calculator has been expanded to take account of mini and micro torpedo launchers as used on shuttles and the quantum torpedoes used by the Federation and Cardassians.

Update

Strengths

The Strength section has a nifty addition - there is now a JavaScript calculator which allows you to choose your own beam wattage, torpedo configuration, etc, and have the page automatically calculate the strength numbers and overall strength of the ship. You can get to it by going to the Fleets section and clicking on "Calculator" in the Strengths part of the list. Enjoy...

Species

The Mazarite, Cretassins, and Web creatures have gone onto the alpha quadrant other species page.

Ships

The Mazarite and Cretassin ships have gone onto the additional ships list. Also, a slight modification to the tables on the ship specs pages - the title of "Warp Speeds" now links to the warp scales page of the sci-tech section, so you can easily jump to somewhere where you can see what the numbers mean.

Lists

The cast, planets and species lists have been brought up to date with the latest Enterprise episodes.

Episode Guide

The latest two episodes of Enterprise have gone up. Two amazing things have happened in these episodes - Archer was NOT beaten up or otherwise attacked, and the show almost got a speed/time calculation right!
